[HTC Sensation] raja'i:
i dont like custom roms

i want official arabic rom, which i cant find on the internet

so what im trying to do is to get the official arabic one through htc update

"i want my device to be recognized as original arabic one so it can get the update"
[HTC Sensation] Alfaifi:
you can S-Off your sensation and then set CID to what you like.

there is a really nice walk-through in the development section for this.

although you might not get the update since your ROM is India version!!
[HTC Sensation] raja'i:
Thanx a lot for replying

I wanna try my luck, to see if I'm going to get the update

So is it safe to change the CID without changing the rom and keep it like that?
[HTC Sensation] dexter93:
You will have to change the Rom, cause since it is stock , It's region locked (requires that cid)

What you should do is: s off , use writecid to change the cid to your desired( Arab u said?) and then flash the Arab ruu to get it all working ;)

** tip: if you can't find the proper ruu, just ask someone with the same cid his stock nandroid backup ;)

Hi,

please don't laugh :)

I am looking to buy a note, as I primarily browse the web, email and gaming more than make calls. but when I do make calls, I was wondering if such a thing exists, similar to a bluetooth headset, but more in the design on a small lightweight handset?? Now i know this sounds ridiculous! and as I type this I can imagine the amount of abuse you will all give for this request! this way I can keep the monster phone in my pocket when I want to make calls, and just use the handset...

:confused:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] ChodTheWacko:
What's the point though? Just use the note as a handset. It's not that big, seriously. I do it all the time.

Yep. . . The sgt guys have found and used them. here is one example:

http://product.madeinchina.com/0-9-OLED-Bluetooth-V3-0-EDR-A2DP-AVRCP-PBAP-MAP_13285084.shtml

This one is pretty small. . There are a few that are the size of 'normal' cell phones.

Proximity sensor kine of stopped working..

If I make a call and place the phone to my ear, the screen will turn turn off, but when the phone is pulled away it won't torn the screen back on.

This makes me believe is not a hardware issue just a little software conflict with maybe some app that maybe be solved by resetting the phone off but I don't want to do that.

Does anyone know which app I can clear off data/cache that may make this thing work again?

Note: I have used AndroidSensor and some other apps to test proximity ans light sensor and they don't seem to work, according to the app.

Thanks.

Edit: Never mind guys, I deleted the last 10 apps, rebooted and it came back to life.

[Acer Iconia Tab A100] tgc001:
My A100 occasionally on booting for sure, not sure about waking, has an issue with the touch screen not responding. I use a numeric lock due to exchange server requiring it. Obviously this creates a problem getting in. After a several minutes it has always become responsive and let me in. At times it will respond erratically but eventually smooths out. Has anyone had this problem? Any ideas? I finally got in this time and killed my exchange account and the lock. I don't know how it will respond if it does it again without the lock. Any help would be appreciated!

something wrong in your question...

you cant just brick your fone so easily.

just remove your battery and press & hold the vol+ button ... and insert the battery and press the power on button... do exactly the way its written ... if boot loader loads, your device is safe... we would give you the additional steps to recover.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AzureusPT:
I think I'm a little lost with the description... If the internal SD is the internal storage of the TF and the MicroSD is the external storage, how do you connect the other SD?

If its via dock, do you know where does it mount it?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devdude:
Yes, it's the sd card that goees into the dock. This is my understanding of the mounts:

/mnt/sdcard = internal storage

/Removable/MicroSD = micro sd card in the tablet itself

/Removable/SD = Full size sd card in the dock (this is the one I have trouble copying from)

[General Questions and Answers] thecarlsoncrew:
I just upgraded my Droid X to Liquid 3.2 (full SBF to 602, ota'd to 605, rooted, then flash to Liquid). I love the ROM, but it appears that my wifi and GPS are now broken. Wifi tries to turn on but then turns back off after a second or two; GPS won't even attempt to come on. Anyone know a fix for this?

Edit: I rebooted into recovery, wiped cache and Dalvik cache, and tried again. Now the GPS appears to be working, and the wifi stays on. However, when I try to connect to my home network, it drops off after a second or two (once it connects, it keeps scanning, and then it disconnects). I logged into my router and saw that my phone was briefly hitting it, but all the router log showed was the transfer of an IP address, nothing useful for troubleshooting. Does anyone know of a log file on the phone somewhere that might indicate why it keeps dropping off of my wireless network (yes, I've double checked the password, and yes, the wireless network is functional right now).

I'm out of guesses at this point, so I'm hoping someone else can help me out.
[General Questions and Answers] thecarlsoncrew:
Hm. It gets curiouser and curiouser...

I've been tinkering throughout the day, and if there is any generalization I can make, it's that between wifi, GPS, and airplane mode, one of them (occasionally two, but never all three) will work at any given time, but every time I reboot a different combination starts working. Go figure.

Help anyone?

The *best*, nicest, complete Transformer Prime and Dock case I've been able to find is coming February:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1406624

I've not been able to find anything available earlier that's built explicitly for the Prime. There's plenty of original Transformer cases, but the dock dimensions aren't quite the same:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1371532&highlight=dock+case

This is their TF101 original Transformer design:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Daltronn:
This case has me rather confused.. It's listed as being up for preorder, but neglects to mention which model its for. It has customer reviews going as far back as one year ago, suggesting it was designed for the tf101. The model in the stock photos are of the tf101 / dock. The dimensions are different enough that a tf101 case + dock case would not be a good fit for the tf201. (tf101= 271 x 176.8 x 12.98 mm; tf201=263 x 180.8 x 8.3 mm).

Is this a case being updated, and thus the preorder situation - yet no information has updated to suggest that, beyond it being a preorder. Or is this just the stars aligning in a confusing manner, with them restocking the case for the original transformer, during a time where folks are trying to hunt down something that fits the new transformer prime?

It's a shame, because it's probably the nicest case out there, but looks like it might be stuck in the previous generation.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SimonTuffGuy:
It seems like the vanilla Mail application does not offer support to sync Contact or Calendar subfolders from Exchange... (Not that this is JUST a Gnex issue) So, what's the best option to get these subfolders synced?

I have a customer who bought a Gnex as a replacement for his BB... He was planning on getting an iPhone, which already supports this.

I can't remember if Dinc my offered this or not... I've never made subfolders in Exchange... until today when I tested it and confirmed that it didn't work.

Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tangiers:
Touchdown exchange email does subfolder sync. And everything else including server searches.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tangiers:
Just noticed you referred to subfolders for contacts and calendar? I have only used subfolders for mail. Never dealt with subfolders for calander or contacts.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SimonTuffGuy:
Yeah - this is one of those one off type deals... The customer creates subfolders outside of his "Contacts" in Exchange... I'm not sure why?... When I looked at the specs of Touchdown, it doesn't seem to cover that.

And when I looked at a site like syncdroid.net and registered for their premo service that tells you applications that do... I couldn't get them working either. Plus - I don't like the idea of having to suggest a third party app for email, etc (aside from Touchdown, which I needed to use in a prior life).

We found an application that syncs public folders... which is apparently where he had this information before moving them into subfolders... So we're going to see if that will work first.

Anyone else?

I haven't booted my Kaiser up in about 2 years, but I am getting ready to leave the country for a vacation and am hoping to satisfy my want to have a GPS device without having to either purchase any International Plans or purchase a dedicated GPS device.

The GPS is still quite functional and working fine, if I turn the cellular radio on, even though I no longer have active service through the device. It looks as though the GPS is disabled, or at least isn't working in my GPS apps when the cellular radio is turned off. Is there any way to use the GPS on the Kaiser but keep the cellular radio off for battery savings and simply because I don't need it?

Don't worry too much about the percentages reported by the phone, even if they drop quickly or are very low. The phone is only guessing the percentage based on battery stats it collects. I've had my reported battery percentage drop like a rock at first, then slow down quite a bit at very low percentages, resulting in reasonable usable battery life even as the phone warned me to plug in the charger.

The closest thing to a real test is to let the battery discharge until the phone shuts itself off.

As I remember my TomTom from several years ago, it needed the equivalent of Bluetooth data tethering. It it pretty rare on newer phones, at least the US ones I've seen. I suspect that carrier specs to the manufacturer have someone to do with it.

If you knew what Bluetooth profile you needed, you might be able to rework the Framework to support it, but I haven't seen a lot of requests.

[Motorola Photon 4G] slawson:
This is very iffy, and DO NOT TRY THIS IF YOU CANNOT FOLLOW DIRECTIONS, I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR PHONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is your problem not mine, if you mess it up :)

My apologies for supersized images, but they get the point across.

Things you will need.

1. Battery bricked Photon/Motorola Device (x/x2/d/d2/etc)

2. A SPARE USB CABLE, NOT YOUR MAIN CABLE! (Don't be dumb!)

3. Your usb cable you use to to connect your device to your pc.

Directions as follows:

Step 1:

Splice your cable by cutting off the end of the cable (where you would input it to the phone)

1a: strip the wire about two inches so that white,green,red,black wires are all showing, pull back Green and white wires, as they will not be used.

1b. Strip the red/black wire so they look like below, then wind them up like so.

2. Pull out the battery in the photon.

2a. This is where this gets tricky, look the postive/negative logo's on the battery above the terminals, place the red in the positive terminal and the black in the negative terminal.

2b. Place battery in phone with wires connected to terminal!

3. Plug usb cable into your pc, then connect your usb cable to the phone, wait 2 minutes, and you should no longer have battery too low messages!!!

Remember when you disconnect the phone, UNPLUG THE BATTERY USB CABLE FROM THE PC FIRST OR YOU WILL **** UP YOUR PHONE'S BATTERY SENSOR!!!!

This will work on ALL motorola devices, and most phones period.

This is like jumping your battery from a car.

You're welcome for saving you money :D, this helped me out SO MANY TIMES.

[Motorola Photon 4G] jokersax11:
I would suggest not plugging the battery into the phone while doing this, instead let it charge for 20-30 mins. Unplug and put in phone
[Motorola Photon 4G] slawson:
It normally doesn't work that way, just make sure contacts don't touch, and not to rip them out of the device before disconnecting from pc.

Also if you do it without plugging it in, make sure not to touch the electrical tape together (of course you'd only be using electrical tape!).
